(CSE: FWM) (\u2018Flow Metals\u2019 or the \u2018Company\u2019) is pleased to report that it has entered into an option agreement dated February 9, 2026 (the \u2018Option Agreement\u2019) with Go Metals Corp. (\u2018Go Metals\u2019) to acquire the Monster IOCG project (the \u2018Monster Project\u2019), located approximately 90 kilometres north of Dawson City in the traditional territory of the Tr\u2019ondek Hwech\u2019in First Nation.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The acquisition of the Monster Project represents a Tier 1-scale opportunity and positions Flow Metals with meaningful exposure to both gold and copper. Our team has long believed in the Yukon\u2019s exceptional mineral potential since we began working in the region in 2010, and the Monster Project marks a pivotal step in building a premier exploration portfolio,\u2019 said Scott Sheldon, CEO of Flow Metals.<\/p>\n<p>Monster Property, Yukon \u2013 IOCG Exploration Target<\/p>\n<p>The Monster Property is a discovery-stage copper exploration project in Yukon, with percent-level copper and cobalt mineralization identified in surface showings. Exploration has identified geological features and metal associations consistent with iron oxide copper-gold (\u2018IOCG\u2019) style systems.<\/p>\n<p>Copper-cobalt showings have been identified over approximately 14 km of strike, defining a mineralized corridor. Grab samples have returned percent-level copper values, including results up to 22.3% Cu and 9.6% Co. To date, 45 grab samples across the project met the strongly mineralized threshold. These occurrences are spatially associated with both magnetic and gravity anomalies. Three main targets have been identified: Bloom, Arena, and Beast, ranging between 1,300 and 3,500 metres in width. Selected samples from these targets are summarized in the tables below. Grab samples are selective by nature and may not represent average grades of mineralized zones.<\/p>\n<p>Parts of the property are underlain by rocks of the Wernecke Breccia, a regionally extensive Paleoproterozoic (~1.8 Ga) iron oxide-rich breccia system. The rocks are characterized by extensive fracturing, brecciation, and iron oxide alteration developed over kilometre-scale zones and are interpreted to record repeated fluid movement through the crust. The resulting fracture networks provide permeable pathways capable of focusing metal-bearing fluids.<\/p>\n<p>A 2021 percussion drilling program was limited by a drill booster failure but intersected 0.72% Cu over 5.0 feet within hematite-chlorite altered breccia interpreted as IOCG-style mineralization. These results confirmed subsurface mineralization, even though the drill hole ended short of the inverted gravity anomaly. True widths and continuity are unknown, and further drilling is required to test the three main gravity anomalies. <\/p>\n<p>Bloom Target (1.9 km\u00b2) selected grab sample highlights:<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Sample ID<br \/>\nCu (%)<br \/>\nCo (%)<br \/>\nAu (g\/t)<br \/>\nAg (g\/t)<\/p>\n<p>J20-22<br \/>\n3.19<br \/>\n0.39<br \/>\n0.11<br \/>\n11.31<\/p>\n<p>J23-32<br \/>\n0.46<br \/>\n9.61<br \/>\n1.17<br \/>\n1.47<\/p>\n<p>H10<br \/>\n1.21<br \/>\n2.41<br \/>\n0.57<br \/>\n4.29<\/p>\n<p>19MOH-052<br \/>\n1.88<br \/>\n0.01<br \/>\n0.01<br \/>\n21.08<\/p>\n<p>19MOH-022<br \/>\n1.70<br \/>\n0.20<br \/>\n0.14<br \/>\n2.80<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0A total of 28 samples at Bloom met the Company\u2019s strongly mineralized threshold. <\/p>\n<p>Arena Target (5.1 km\u00b2) selected grab sample highlights:<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Sample ID<br \/>\nCu (%)<br \/>\nCo (%)<br \/>\nAu (g\/t)<br \/>\nAg (g\/t)<\/p>\n<p>19MOJA-09<br \/>\n7.31<br \/>\n0.01<br \/>\n0.03<br \/>\n8.54<\/p>\n<p>19MO-047<br \/>\n6.10<br \/>\n0.56<br \/>\n0.52<br \/>\n15.20<\/p>\n<p>J48<br \/>\n3.81<br \/>\n0.01<br \/>\n0.02<br \/>\n53.52<\/p>\n<p>J35<br \/>\n0.19<br \/>\n2.96<br \/>\n0.49<br \/>\n0.29<\/p>\n<p>19MO-063<br \/>\n0.22<br \/>\n1.11<br \/>\n0.30<br \/>\n0.29<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A total of 21 samples at Arena met the Company\u2019s strongly mineralized threshold. <\/p>\n<p>Beast Target (2.4 km\u00b2) selected grab sample highlights:<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Sample ID<br \/>\nCu (%)<br \/>\nCo (%)<br \/>\nAu (g\/t)<br \/>\nAg (g\/t)<\/p>\n<p>19MO-015<br \/>\n2.72<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.16<br \/>\n2.31<\/p>\n<p>19MOH-015<br \/>\n22.33<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.01<br \/>\n0.28<\/p>\n<p>M18-38<br \/>\n0.80<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.07<\/p>\n<p>M18-39<br \/>\n0.82<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.00<br \/>\n0.08<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A total of 4 samples at Beast met the Company\u2019s strongly mineralized threshold.<\/p>\n<p>Option Agreement \u2013 Monster Project<\/p>\n<p>Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Flow Metals may acquire a 100% interest in the Monster Project by completing the following payments and share issuances (collectively, the \u2018Option Consideration\u2019):<\/p>\n<p>3,000,000 common shares of Flow Metals, payable within 10 business days of receipt of all required approvals and CSE acceptance;<\/p>\n<p>3,000,000 common shares of Flow Metals on the one year anniversary of the execution date;<\/p>\n<p>$2,000,000, payable on the 120th day of commercial production; and<\/p>\n<p>Go Metals will retain a 2% net smelter return royalty (\u2018NSR\u2019) on the Monster Project.<\/p>\n<p>The transaction constitutes a \u2018related party transaction\u2019 for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 \u2013 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (\u2018MI 61-101\u2019), as certain directors and\/or officers of the Company are also directors and\/or officers of Go Metals. The Company will comply with applicable requirements of MI 61-101 in connection with the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>The transaction is exempt from the valuation and minority approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), as the fair market value of the transaction is not more than 25% of Flow Metals\u2019 market capitalization. Further, Evans &amp; Evans has been retained to provide a fairness opinion to the board of directors of Go Metals in connection with the transaction. The fairness opinion is expected to address the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the transaction to Go Metals and is not a formal valuation. <\/p>\n<p>Sixtymile Project<\/p>\n<p>The Sixtymile district is a historic placer gold camp that has produced gold since the 1890s and remains active today. Ongoing placer operations continue to recover angular and crystalline gold, which is interpreted to indicate a nearby bedrock source. Flow Metals\u2019 mineral claims cover key placer-producing drainages, including Bedrock, Miller, Glacier, and Little Gold creeks. The claims lie within a thrust-related deformation corridor extending at least nine kilometres across the property, which is interpreted to have acted as a major structural conduit for mineralizing fluids.<\/p>\n<p>Recent geological reinterpretation, based on detailed re-logging of historic drill hole DDH-11-18, has identified a folded metasedimentary (turbidite) sequence within the host schist. Gold-bearing quartz veins are interpreted to occur preferentially within competent, quartz-rich layers that have been folded into antiformal geometries within the structural corridor. Historical drilling intersected 105.30 m at 0.51 g\/t Au from 88.0 m, including 24.07 m at 1.57 g\/t Au in DDH-11-18*. This refined, fold-controlled model provides a focused framework for targeting higher-grade shoots within deformed, quartz-rich horizons.<\/p>\n<p>*These results are historical in nature, have not been independently verified by the Company, and should not be relied upon as a current estimate of mineralization.<\/p>\n<p>About Flow Metals<\/p>\n<p>Flow Metals group has maintained an active presence in the Yukon since 2018, building deep technical expertise and local relationships across the territory. Flow Metals has established a trusted network of experienced contractors and strong working relationships with both territorial and First Nation governments, providing the Company with a solid foundation to efficiently advance exploration projects in the North.<\/p>\n<p>Qualified Person <\/p>\n<p>Harley Slade, P.
